Personal Description:

I am French and mother of 2.
In 2004 I registered with OFSTED to teach French to young children, being ofsted registered gives parents the peace of mind that I have a CRB and allows parents to pay me with Childcare vouchers if they have a scheme at work.

Tutoring Experience:

I used to tutor French to adults when I lived in Czech Republic and Germany 15 years ago.

From 2004 I taught mostly children and toddlers and since 2009 I am teaching an increasing number of GCSE students, A Level and adults of all levels.
I cater for all students irrespective of ability including those with challenging needs.

Tutoring Approach:

My approach to tutoring is adapted to the student ability. I use a lot of very varied resources and try to make the tuition fun.

The fee stated is for tuition from my home. If you wish to have tuition from your home or office please add £5.00 + taxi cost (if more than 15 minutes walk).

MarieFrom John (5/5): (GCSE French)Marie, has been great. She has given him confidence and he really enjoys the sessions now. He has improved by 2 grades (c to an a)

Reply from Marie: He is extremely bright. It's a pleasure to tutor your son and was great to see his exceptional progress on paper (nice A). Now we are working towards A* and to boost his confidence for his French exchange.

MarieFrom Sue (5/5): (University French)Marie has created an excellent first impression from our first tutorial. She is extremely friendly, which is so reassuring if you lack confidence in speaking the language. I am also extremely pleased that she is putting together a lesson plan to focus me on reaching my own goals in the French language. I feel confident that time spent with her will help me to finally realise my own potential.

MarieFrom John (5/5): (Casual Learner French)My wife and I are receiving lessons from Marie together. 2 weeks into our lessons and we are really enjoying it and learning a lot. Marie is very professional and structured. She also encourages and motivates us to do well.

In short, if you are looking for an excellent French Tutor in the Harrogate area, you need look no further. Marie is a lovely lady, very organised, very professional & very patient. She has improved my "not since school a very long time ago" French to a level where I'm really looking forward to my holiday there tomorrow! Not much short of miraculous in my view!
Thanks Marie
